Combined EMA, SMMA, and 60-Day Cycle Indicator V2What This Script Does:
This script is designed to help traders visualize market trends and generate trading signals based on a combination of moving averages and price action. Here's a breakdown of its components and functionality:
Moving Averages:
EMAs (Exponential Moving Averages): These are indicators that smooth out price data to help identify trends. The script uses several EMAs:
200 EMA: A long-term trend indicator.
400 EMA: An even longer-term trend indicator.
55 EMA: A medium-term trend indicator.
89 EMA: Another medium-term trend indicator.
SMMA (Smoothed Moving Average): Similar to EMAs but with different smoothing. The script calculates:
21 SMMA: Short-term smoothed average.
9 SMMA: Very short-term smoothed average.
Cycle High and Low:
60-Day Cycle: The script looks back over the past 60 days to find the highest price (cycle high) and the lowest price (cycle low). These are plotted as horizontal lines on the chart.
Color-Coded Clouds:
Clouds: The script fills the area between certain EMAs with color-coded clouds to visually indicate trend conditions:
200 EMA vs. 400 EMA Cloud: Green when the 200 EMA is above the 400 EMA (bullish trend) and red when it’s below (bearish trend).
21 SMMA vs. 9 SMMA Cloud: Orange when the 21 SMMA is above the 9 SMMA and green when it’s below.
55 EMA vs. 89 EMA Cloud: Light green when the 55 EMA is above the 89 EMA and red when it’s below.
Trading Signals:
Buy Signal: This is shown when:
The price crosses above the 60-day low and
The EMAs indicate a bullish trend (e.g., the 200 EMA is above the 400 EMA and the 55 EMA is above the 89 EMA).
Sell Signal: This is shown when:
The price crosses below the 60-day high and
The EMAs indicate a bearish trend (e.g., the 200 EMA is below the 400 EMA and the 55 EMA is below the 89 EMA).
How It Helps Traders:
Trend Visualization: The colored clouds and EMA lines help you quickly see whether the market is in a bullish or bearish phase.
Trading Signals: The script provides clear visual signals (buy and sell labels) based on specific market conditions, helping you make more informed trading decisions.
In summary, this script combines several tools to help identify market trends and provide buy and sell signals based on price action relative to a 60-day high/low and the positioning of moving averages. It’s a useful tool for traders looking to visualize trends and automate some aspects of their trading strategy.

D-Shape Breakout Signals [LuxAlgo]The D-Shape Breakout Signals indicator uses a unique and novel technique to provide support/resistance curves, a trailing stop loss line, and visual breakout signals from semi-circular shapes.
🔶 USAGE
D-shape is a new concept where the distance between two Swing points is used to create a semi-circle/arc, where the width is expressed as a user-defined percentage of the radius. The resulting arc can be used as a potential support/resistance as well as a source of breakouts.
Users can adjust this percentage (width of the D-shape) in the settings ( "D-Width" ), which will influence breakouts and the Stop-Loss line.
🔹 Breakouts of D-Shape
The arc of this D-shape is used for detecting breakout signals between the price and the curve. Only one breakout per D-shape can occur.
A breakout is highlighted with a colored dot, signifying its location, with a green dot being used when the top part of the arc is exceeded, and red when the bottom part of the arc is surpassed.
When the price reaches the right side of the arc without breaking the arc top/bottom, a blue-colored dot is highlighted, signaling a "Neutral Breakout".
🔹 Trailing Stop-Loss Line
The script includes a Trailing Stop-Loss line (TSL), which is only updated when a breakout of the D-Shape occurs. The TSL will return the midline of the D-Shape subject to a breakout.
The TSL can be used as a stop-loss or entry-level but can also act as a potential support/resistance level or trend visualization.
🔶 DETAILS
A D-shape will initially be colored green when a Swing Low is followed by a Swing High, and red when a Swing Low is followed by a Swing High.
A breakout of the upper side of the D-shape will always update the color to green or to red when the breakout occurs in the lower part. A Neutral Breakout will result in a blue-colored D-shape. The transparency is lowered in the event of a breakout.
In the event of a D-shape breakout, the shape will be removed when the total number of visible D-Shapes exceeds the user set "Minimum Patterns" setting. Any D-shape whose boundaries have not been exceeded (and therefore still active) will remain visible.
🔹 Trailing Stop-Loss Line
Only when a breakout occurs will the midline of the D-shape closest to the closing price potentially become the new Trailing Stop value.
The script will only consider middle lines below the closing price on an upward breakout or middle lines above the closing price when it concerns a downward breakout.
In an uptrend, with an already available green TSL, the potential new Stop-Loss value must be higher than the previous TSL value; while in a downtrend, the new TSL value must be lower.
The Stop-Loss line won't be updated when a "Neutral Breakout" occurs.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swing Length: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
🔹 D-Patterns
Minimum Patterns: Minimum amount of visible D-Shape patterns.
D-Width: Width of the D-Shape as a percentage of the distance between both Swing Points.
Included Swings: Include "Swing High" (followed by a Swing Low), "Swing Low" (followed by a Swing High), or "Both"
Style Historical Patterns: Show the "Arc", "Midline" or "Both" of historical patterns.
🔹 Style
Label Size/Colors
Connecting Swing Level: Shows a line connecting the first Swing Point.
Color Fill: colorfill of Trailing Stop-Loss
Atlantean Bitcoin Weekly Market Condition - Top/Bottom BTC Overview:
The "Atlantean Bitcoin Weekly Market Condition Detector - Top/Bottom BTC" is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify significant turning points in the Bitcoin market on a weekly basis. By analyzing long-term and short-term moving averages across two distinct resolutions, this indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential market bottoms and tops, as well as the initiation of bull markets.
Key Features:
Market Bottom Detection: The script uses a combination of a simple moving average (SMA) and an exponential moving average (EMA) calculated over long and short periods to identify potential market bottoms. When these conditions are met, the script signals a "Market Bottom" label on the chart, indicating a possible buying opportunity.
Bull Market Start Indicator: When the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term SMA, it signals the beginning of a bull market. This is marked by a "Bull Market Start" label on the chart, helping traders to prepare for potential market upswings.
Market Top Detection: The script identifies potential market tops by analyzing the crossunder of long and short-term moving averages. A "Market Top" label is plotted, suggesting a potential selling point.
Customizable Moving Averages Display: Users can choose to display the moving averages used for detecting market tops and bottoms, providing additional insights into market conditions.
How It Works: The indicator operates by monitoring the interactions between the specified moving averages:
Market Bottom: Detected when the long-term SMA (adjusted by a factor of 0.745) crosses over the short-term EMA.
Bull Market Start: Detected when the short-term EMA crosses above the long-term SMA.
Market Top: Detected when the long-term SMA (adjusted by a factor of 2) crosses under the short-term SMA.
These conditions are highlighted on the chart, allowing traders to visualize significant market events and make informed decisions.
Intended Use: This indicator is best used on weekly Bitcoin charts. It’s designed to provide long-term market insights rather than short-term trading signals. Traders can use this tool to identify strategic entry and exit points during major market cycles. The optional display of moving averages can further enhance understanding of market dynamics.
Originality and Utility: Unlike many other indicators, this script not only highlights traditional market tops and bottoms but also identifies the aggressive start of bull markets, offering a comprehensive view of market conditions. The unique combination of adjusted moving averages makes this script a valuable tool for long-term Bitcoin traders.
Disclaimer: The signals provided by this indicator are based on historical data and mathematical calculations. They do not guarantee future market performance. Traders should use this tool as part of a broader trading strategy and consider other factors before making trading decisions. Not financial advice.

Markets
- Designed for use on various markets, including stocks, futures, forex, and crypto
This script is useful for traders who want to visualize the prices at the start of the trading day and track the market's movement throughout the day.
1% Range Bars with Sequence TableOverall Logic :
The script is designed to help traders visualize and analyze price movements on the chart, where each 1% movement is highlighted with a corresponding symbol. Additionally, the table helps track and analyze the number and length of consecutive price movements in one direction, which can be useful for identifying trends and understanding market dynamics.
This script can be particularly useful for traders looking for recurring patterns in price movements and wanting to quickly identify significant changes on the chart.
Main elements of the script :
Price Percentage Change:
The script tracks the price movement by 1% from the last significant value (the value at which the last 1% change was recorded).
If the price rises by 1% or more, a green circle is displayed above the bar.
If the price drops by 1% or more, a red circle is displayed below the bar.
Sequence Counting:
The script counts the number of consecutive 1% moves upwards (green circles) and downwards (red circles).
Separate counters are maintained for upward and downward movements, increasing each time the respective movement occurs.
If an opposite movement interrupts the sequence, the counter for the opposite direction is reset.
Sequence Table:
A table displayed on the chart shows the number of sequences of 1% movements in one direction for lengths from 1 to 15 bars.
The table is updated in real-time and shows how many times sequences of a certain length occurred on the chart, where the price moved by 1% in one direction.
Prometheus Volatility EMAThe Prometheus Volatility EMA is an indicator that calculates an Exponential Moving Average with the historical volatility as how we decide how sensitive to make the indicator to the most recent data.
A traditional EMA is calculated like this:
EMA = alpha * source + (1 - alpha) * EMA , where alpha = 2 / (length + 1)
Sourced from TradingView’s ta.ema built in function.
We see that the alpha value is used to determine how sensitive the EMA will be to the most recent prices, and it is derived from how many bars back are used in the calculation.
Prometheus is using the annualized historical volatility, for a specified period as the “alpha” value. The reason for this is that on more volatile assets, the EMA will follow price more closely to give you a better idea of when price may change direction.
Historical Volatility calculation:
hv = ta.stdev(math.log(close / close ), lkb) * math.sqrt(252/5)
EMA calculation:
float hv_EMA = na
hv_EMA := na(hv_EMA ) ? ta.sma(close, lkb) : hv * close + (1 - hv) * hv_EMA
Let's explain some charts to better understand this tool!
We see on a 1 year NASDAQ:SHY chart, the moving average is far from the price. This makes sense as NASDAQ:SHY has a range of 2.85% from the low to the high for this period in the photo above. It is not very volatile.
In this chart of BITSTAMP:BTCUSD we see that the EMA follows price very closely, way closer than it does on $SHY. This is because BITSTAMP:BTCUSD is much more volatile. BITSTAMP:BTCUSD has a range of 196% from the low to the high in this photo. Way more than $SHY.
We see it change on the same asset here looking at $QQQ. In the small period with the drop we see the EMA follow more closely as volatility picks up, then it quickly allows price to get far as volatility leaves.
This is the perspective we aim to provide. We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly. No indicator is 100% accurate. This one can give you a different perspective of price strength with volatility. We encourage any comments about desired updates or criticism!
MTF Volume Flow IndicatorThe MTF Volume Flow Indicator (MTF VFI) is an advanced and versatile tool that enhances market analysis by tracking the flow of volume across multiple timeframes. By integrating volume flow with multi-timeframe analysis, this indicator provides traders with a comprehensive understanding of market trends, momentum, and potential reversals.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Volume Flow Analysis: The MTF VFI computes the Volume Flow Indicator across various timeframes, ranging from 1 minute to 1 month. This multi-timeframe analysis enables traders to observe and compare volume flow dynamics across different time horizons, offering deeper insights into market behavior.
Customizable VFI Settings: The indicator includes configurable VFI parameters such as length, coefficient, and volume cutoff, allowing users to tailor the analysis to different market conditions and trading strategies. This flexibility ensures that the indicator remains relevant across diverse market environments.
Signal Line and Delta Calculations: The script features a signal line derived from the VFI and calculates the delta values (the difference between VFI and the signal line). These delta values are essential for identifying potential buy or sell signals and are presented as histograms for easy visual interpretation.
Cumulative Delta with Dynamic Bands: The indicator introduces cumulative delta, a powerful tool that combines average and median VFI values to provide a clearer picture of market sentiment. Two standard deviation bands are plotted around the cumulative delta, offering a range within which price movements are likely to remain. These bands are smoothed using a 21-period EMA, providing a more refined view of market volatility.
Multi-Timeframe and Analysis Tables: The MTF VFI includes optional tables that display VFI, signal line, and delta values across all selected timeframes. Additionally, an analysis table presents key statistical metrics such as the highest, lowest, average, standard deviation, range, and median VFI values. These tables provide a concise summary of market conditions, aiding in strategic decision-making.
Dynamic Display Options: The indicator offers extensive customization options, allowing traders to display or hide elements such as delta histograms, delta bands, and tables. This ensures that users can focus on the most relevant information for their trading strategy.
Neutral Candle Coloring Option: Traders can enable neutral candle colors, where bearish candles are gray and bullish candles are white. This feature helps to reduce noise and maintain focus on the overall trend and volume flow analysis.
How It Works
Volume Flow Indicator Calculation: The VFI is calculated using a combination of typical price, volume, and the standard deviation of price changes. The indicator smooths the VFI based on user preferences, allowing traders to adjust the sensitivity of the analysis to better match their trading style.
Multi-Timeframe Integration: The script pulls VFI calculations from multiple timeframes, providing a holistic view of market trends. By analyzing VFI across different timeframes, traders can detect alignments or divergences in volume flow that might indicate trend strength or weakness.
Cumulative Delta and Dynamic Bands: The cumulative delta is computed by combining the average and median VFI values. Dynamic two-standard-deviation bands are plotted around this cumulative delta, providing upper and lower bounds for expected price movements. These bands are further smoothed with a 21-period EMA, enhancing their effectiveness in volatile markets.
Delta Analysis and Histogram Display: The difference between the VFI and its signal line (delta) is calculated and displayed as histograms. This visual representation helps traders quickly assess momentum and identify potential reversals or trend continuations. The cumulative delta is color-coded dynamically based on its direction, adding an extra layer of visual clarity.
Alerts
VFI Crossover Alerts: The indicator includes customizable alerts that notify traders when the VFI crosses above or below its signal line. These alerts are crucial for catching potential trend reversals or continuation signals, even when the trader is not actively monitoring the chart.
Customizable Alert Conditions: Traders can tailor alert conditions to their preferred timeframes and VFI settings, ensuring that the notifications they receive are relevant and timely for their specific trading strategies.
Application
Trend Identification and Confirmation: The MTF VFI aids in identifying and confirming trends by analyzing volume flow across multiple timeframes. This capability is particularly useful for detecting trends that may not be visible on a single timeframe.
Momentum and Divergence Analysis: By comparing VFI and delta values across timeframes, and analyzing cumulative delta with dynamic bands, traders can gain insights into market momentum and potential divergences, which are often precursors to reversals.
Strategic Decision-Making: With its comprehensive multi-timeframe analysis, cumulative delta, and statistical summaries, the MTF VFI equips traders with the information needed to make informed trading decisions, whether for short-term trades or long-term investments.
Visual Clarity and Customization: The indicator’s dynamic display options and neutral candle coloring help traders maintain a clear and focused view of the market, customizing the visualization to match their specific needs.
The MTF Volume Flow Indicator (MTF VFI) by CryptoSea is an essential tool for traders who seek to gain a deeper understanding of market trends and volume dynamics across multiple timeframes. Its advanced features and customization options make it a valuable addition to any trader’s toolkit.
Money Flow DivergenceThe Money Flow Divergence indicator is designed to help traders identify periods when there is a significant divergence between the growth of the U.S. M2 money supply and the S&P 500 index (SPX).
This divergence can provide insights into potential market turning points, making it a valuable tool for long-term investors and traders looking to capitalize on macroeconomic trends.
How It Works:
Data Sources:
S&P 500 Index (SPX) and U.S. M2 Money Supply.
Calculating Growth Rates:
SPX Growth: The script calculates the percentage growth of the S&P 500 index by comparing the current closing price with the previous period's closing price.
M2 Growth: Similarly, it calculates the percentage growth of the U.S. M2 money supply by comparing the current value with the previous period's value.
Growth Gap/Delta:
Growth Gap: The core of the indicator is the "growth gap" or "delta," which is the difference between the M2 money supply growth and the SPX growth. This gap indicates whether liquidity in the economy (represented by M2) is outpacing or lagging behind the performance of the stock market.
Interpretation:
Positive Gap (Green Bars): When the M2 growth outpaces SPX growth, the gap is positive, indicating that there is more liquidity in the system than what is being reflected in the stock market. This scenario often signals potential upward momentum in the market, making it a good time to consider buying.
Negative Gap (Red Bars): When the SPX growth outpaces M2 growth, the gap is negative, suggesting that the market may be overextended relative to the available liquidity. This can be a warning sign of potential market corrections or downturns.
Visualization:
The indicator plots the growth gap as a histogram with bars colored based on the gap value:
Green Bars: Indicate a positive gap where M2 growth is higher than SPX growth.
Red Bars: Indicate a negative gap where SPX growth is higher than M2 growth.
The bars are thickened for better visibility, and a horizontal line at zero is plotted to help users easily distinguish between positive and negative gaps.
How To Use It:
Time Frame Selection: Users can select the desired time frame (e.g., monthly, weekly) for the data. This flexibility allows traders to analyze the indicator over different periods, depending on their investment horizon.
Monthly time frames seem to work best.
Interpreting the Indicator:
Bullish Signals: Look for sustained periods of positive growth gaps (green bars), which may indicate a favorable environment for buying or holding long positions.
Bearish Signals: Be cautious during periods of negative growth gaps (red bars), which could signal overvaluation in the market or potential pullbacks.
Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions.
Catastrophe DistanceCatastrophe Distance is a tool to visually explore the time between catastrophic price moves.
Catastrophes are defined with 2 variables:
drawdown_threshold: the amount of percent the price has to fall
lookback_period = the amount of last candles in which drawdown_threshold was reached.
Drawdown_threshold per default is 25% and lookback_period is 5, meaning per default if price moves -25% in the last 5 candles you have a catastrophe.
Feel free to play around with this values to fit all the events you consider a catastrophe.
This indicator does not provide signals. It however implies caution if the time since the last catastrophe is higher then the average time between catastrophes (of last x catastrophes).
This is marked by the label over the current price showing the actual and average time since last catastrophe turning from green to black.
Given that the distance between catastrophes is somewhat cyclical:
Maybe now is a good time to start phishing for low limit orders and reduce leverage?
Prometheus NFP LevelsThis script is a tool to mark the high and low of the most recent first Friday of the month. The significance of that day is that’s when the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports the Non Farm Payrolls (NFP) for the month prior. This number includes how many jobs were added that month, the unemployment rate, and labor force participation rate to name a few.
It is always on the first Friday of the new month, and markets tend to care about it quite a bit.
This script also allows a user to get the high and low of a specific date, the default date is the last Federal Open Market Committee day (FOMC). On this day the Federal Reserve announces the Federal Funds Interest Rate, as well as giving guidance on things like bond buying programs, to name a few.
Markets care about these days a lot, that is why we decided to make this script. Prometheus plans to update the default custom date with the most recent FOMC date as they come around.
Here we see the FOMC level high in blue, and low in yellow as well as the NFP high and low in green and red. The white boxes highlight areas where the market reacted to the levels.
On this chart we see a different asset still has interactions with the levels.
We chose to have the user input the date the way we did, not as a timestamp, for this code:
ts_start = timestamp(event_year, event_month, event_day, 9, 30)
ts_end = timestamp(event_year, event_month, event_day+1, 0, 0)
Adding one to the inputted date gives us a simple way to define the time range.
Prometheus encourages users to use indicators as tools along with their own discretion. No indicator is 100% accurate. We encourage comments about requested features and criticism.
Smoothed SuperTrend with VWAP Confirmation [CHE] Smoothed SuperTrend with Automated Optimization and VWAP Confirmation
Overview
The "Smoothed SuperTrend with VWAP Confirmation" is an advanced technical analysis indicator designed for precise trend identification and trading signal generation. This script integrates a smoothed version of the popular SuperTrend indicator with an additional layer of confirmation using the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP). The combination of these two elements offers traders a powerful tool for identifying optimal entry and exit points in the market.
Key Features
1. Smoothed SuperTrend
- Super Smoother Algorithm: The SuperTrend in this script is not just a regular one; it is enhanced by the Super Smoother filter, which reduces market noise and provides more reliable trend signals.
- Customizable Parameters: Traders can adjust three different sets of SuperTrend parameters (factor and ATR length), allowing them to tailor the indicator to their specific trading strategies.
- Automatic Optimization: The script automatically evaluates the performance of each SuperTrend parameter set and selects the one with the best cumulative performance. This selection process can be set to pick either the best or the worst performing parameter set, depending on the trader's preference.
2. VWAP Confirmation
- Precise Trend Confirmation: Once the best-performing SuperTrend is identified, the script further refines the signals by using VWAP as a confirmation tool. VWAP is a highly respected indicator in the trading community, often used to assess the true average price of an asset.
- Long and Short Signal Generation: The script generates Long and Short signals only when the price action is confirmed by both the SuperTrend and VWAP. For a Long signal, the price must be above the VWAP, and for a Short signal, it must be below the VWAP. This dual confirmation ensures higher accuracy and reduces the likelihood of false signals.
3. Visual and Informative Labels
- Signal Labels: Upon confirmation of a trend reversal by both the SuperTrend and VWAP, the script plots clear labels on the chart, indicating confirmed Long or Short signals. These labels are customizable in terms of color, text, and size, ensuring they fit seamlessly into any chart setup.
- Best Parameters Display: At the close of the most recent bar, the script displays a label that provides detailed information about the best-performing SuperTrend parameters and their cumulative performance. This feature keeps traders informed about which settings are currently most effective.
Input Customization Options
1. Super Smoother Length
- Traders can define the length of the Super Smoother filter, which is used to smooth both price data and ATR (Average True Range) values. This input allows traders to control the sensitivity of the indicator, with shorter lengths providing faster responses and longer lengths offering smoother trends.
2. SuperTrend Parameters
- Factor: For each of the three SuperTrends, traders can set a unique factor that determines the distance of the SuperTrend bands from the average price. A higher factor results in wider bands and fewer signals, while a lower factor results in narrower bands and more signals.
- ATR Length: Traders can also specify the length of the ATR used in each SuperTrend calculation. A longer ATR period captures broader market volatility, while a shorter period focuses on more immediate price movements.
3. Label Settings
- Label Colors: The script allows full customization of label colors for Long and Short signals, ensuring that they match the trader’s chart aesthetics.
- Label Text Colors and Sizes: Traders can adjust the text color and size of the labels for Long, Short, and information labels, allowing them to prioritize visibility and readability on their charts.
4. Performance Selection Mode
- Best or Worst Performer: This input allows traders to select whether the script should optimize for the best or worst performing SuperTrend parameter set. This flexibility is useful in different market conditions, where a trader might want to analyze either the strongest trend or focus on a contrarian strategy.
5. VWAP Calculation
- The script automatically recalculates the VWAP based on trend changes, ensuring that the confirmation signals are as accurate and relevant as possible to the current market context.
Important Note
This script is designed to provide more accurate trend signals and confirmations, but like all technical indicators, it should not be used in isolation. It is recommended to use this tool as part of a broader trading strategy, including proper risk management and consideration of fundamental market conditions.
Conclusion
The "Smoothed SuperTrend with VWAP Confirmation" script is an innovative trading tool that combines the strengths of the SuperTrend and VWAP indicators.

Entropy Indicator [CHE]Entropy in Technical Analysis Using TradingView
Slide 1: Title
Entropy in Technical Analysis Using TradingView
Introduction to the concept of entropy
Application in technical analysis
Understanding the use of entropy as a market indicator
Slide 2: What is Entropy?
Definition and Origins:
Entropy originates from thermodynamics and information theory.
In thermodynamics, entropy describes the degree of disorder or randomness in a system.
In information theory, entropy quantifies the uncertainty or unpredictability of information content.
Mathematical Definition:
Entropy measures the unpredictability of a system.
The basic idea: Higher entropy means more randomness; lower entropy indicates more predictability.
Formula: Entropy is calculated using the probabilities of different outcomes, based on how frequently certain price levels are reached.
Slide 3: Entropy in Financial Markets
Why Entropy Matters:
Market Uncertainty: Entropy can measure the level of uncertainty or randomness in financial markets.
Volatility Indicator: High entropy may indicate a volatile, unpredictable market, while low entropy suggests a stable, predictable market.
Applications in Trading:
Trend Analysis: Identifying periods of high entropy can help detect potential trend reversals or periods of market consolidation.
Risk Management: Using entropy to adjust trading strategies based on the perceived level of market uncertainty.
Slide 4: How Entropy is Calculated in Trading
Step-by-Step Process:
Data Collection:
The first step is to gather the relevant price data over a specific period, such as 200 closing prices. This data forms the basis of the entropy calculation, representing the market's recent behavior.
Defining Bins:
The price range within the collected data is divided into a fixed number of bins or intervals. These bins represent different price levels. For instance, if you choose 5 bins, the price range will be split into 5 equal segments.
Assigning Data to Bins:
The next step is to assign each price within the data to one of these bins. This step helps in understanding how frequently the price falls within specific ranges, indicating the distribution of prices over the period.
Calculating Probabilities:
After assigning the data to bins, calculate the probability for each bin by dividing the number of data points in each bin by the total number of data points. These probabilities reflect how often prices fall into each range.
Computing Entropy:
Entropy is then calculated based on the distribution of these probabilities. The formula involves summing the products of each probability and the logarithm of that probability. This calculation tells us how evenly the prices are distributed across the bins.
Interpretation for Traders:
High entropy indicates that the prices are spread evenly across the bins, suggesting a highly random and uncertain market. Low entropy, on the other hand, shows that prices are concentrated in fewer bins, indicating more predictable and stable market conditions.
Slide 5: Implementing and Using Entropy in TradingView
How It Works in TradingView:
Data Period: Typically, entropy is calculated over a specific number of bars (e.g., 200), representing recent market activity. The longer the period, the broader the market behavior considered.
Bin Division: The price range during this period is divided into a set number of bins. These bins help to categorize price levels and assess how spread out the market’s activity is.
Entropy Calculation: The indicator evaluates the spread of prices across these bins to determine the level of market disorder. This is visualized on the chart as an entropy line, helping traders to see fluctuations in market uncertainty.
Practical Application:
As a trader, you can use the entropy indicator to gauge when the market is in a state of high uncertainty (high entropy) or low uncertainty (low entropy). This insight can inform decisions on when to take riskier trades or when to stay conservative.
Slide 6: Interpreting the Entropy Indicator
High Entropy:
Characteristics:
Indicates a high level of market disorder, where price movements are more random and less predictable.
Suggests volatile or unpredictable market conditions.
Implications for Traders:
During periods of high entropy, traders might need to exercise greater caution, reduce position sizes, or employ more defensive trading strategies.
High entropy could signal potential trend reversals or significant market movements, making it a critical period to watch closely.
Low Entropy:
Characteristics:
Suggests that the market is more predictable, with prices showing less variation and more consistent trends.
Typically associated with trending markets where price movement is more orderly.
Implications for Traders:
In a low entropy environment, traders might favor trend-following strategies, as the market shows clearer directional movement.
Low entropy can also suggest more reliable trading opportunities, where the risk of sudden, unpredictable price swings is reduced.
Slide 7: Use Cases and Strategy Integration
Practical Use Cases:
Trend Reversals: Use entropy to identify potential points where a market may shift from trending to consolidating, or vice versa. A sudden increase in entropy might indicate the end of a stable trend and the start of a more volatile period.
Volatility Detection: Detect periods of increased market volatility by observing spikes in entropy. These periods can be critical for adjusting your trading strategy, either by scaling back or by taking advantage of the increased movement.
Strategy Integration:
Risk Management: Incorporate entropy into your risk management strategy by adjusting position sizes, leverage, or stop-loss levels based on the current entropy reading. In high entropy conditions, it might be wise to take smaller, more conservative positions.
Combining Indicators: Entropy can be effectively combined with other indicators, such as moving averages or RSI, to provide a more comprehensive view of market conditions. For example, using entropy alongside a trend indicator can help confirm whether a trend is strong and likely to continue, or if it's weakening and at risk of reversal.
Slide 8: Advantages and Limitations of Entropy
Advantages:
Unique Perspective: Entropy offers a unique way to measure market uncertainty that complements traditional volatility measures. It provides traders with insights into the randomness and predictability of price movements, which can be crucial for strategic decision-making.
Dynamic Analysis: Entropy adapts to changes in market conditions, offering real-time insights into the level of market disorder. This makes it a valuable tool for traders who need to stay responsive to the market's evolving dynamics.
Limitations:
Complex Interpretation: Unlike more straightforward indicators, entropy requires a deeper understanding to interpret correctly. Traders need to be familiar with how entropy levels relate to market behavior and what actions to take in response.
Sensitivity to Parameters: The results can vary significantly depending on the number of bins and the data period chosen, requiring careful parameter selection. Traders may need to experiment with different settings to find the most informative configuration for their specific market or trading style.
Slide 9: Conclusion
Key Takeaways:
Entropy as a Tool: Provides a unique perspective on market dynamics by measuring unpredictability. This can help traders better understand the nature of market conditions and tailor their strategies accordingly.
Practical Application: Can enhance trading strategies, particularly in volatile markets, by helping to identify periods of high uncertainty and adjusting risk management practices.
Further Exploration: Experimenting with different bin sizes and periods can help fine-tune the entropy indicator for specific markets and trading strategies. Traders are encouraged to combine entropy with other indicators to build a more robust trading framework.
Final Thoughts:
Entropy is a powerful concept that, when applied correctly, can offer valuable insights into market behavior. It should be used in conjunction with other tools and indicators to make informed trading decisions, particularly in markets where unpredictability plays a significant role.
This presentation provides a comprehensive overview of entropy, its significance in financial markets, and how it can be practically applied as an indicator in TradingView. The focus is on how traders can use entropy to enhance their trading strategies and improve their understanding of market conditions.

Prometheus TTM SqueezeThe TTM indicator is an indicator used to better understand an underlying’s direction and volatility. Positive values indicate a rising price, negative falling. There is also an element of the underlying's volatility, explained below.
When, in this particular indicator, the zero line is the aqua color, that means that the volatility has picked up. In literal terms, it means that the upper Keltner Channel is above the upper Bollinger Band and the lower Keltner Channel is below the lower Bollinger Band. The range of the Keltner Channels is greater than the range of the Bollinger bands. What this is supposed to correlate to with price action is a more volatile choppier area. See below.
This is an example of volatility picking up being shown as the speed of the underlying. When the line turns aqua the move following tends to be sharp in the respective direction. Not a smooth delivery of price.
Regarding why this script is different from the others, with this script you do not need to input a bar's back value if you do not want to. Bars back being the amount of bars used in the indicator calculation. This is because of the use of Sum of Squared Errors, or SSE. How we do it is we calculate a Simple Moving Average or SMA and the indicator using a lot of different bars back values. Then if there is an event, characterized by the oscillator crossing over or under the 0 line, we subtract the close by the SMA and square it. If there is no event we return a big value, we want the error to be as small as possible. Because we loop over every value for bars back, we get the value with the smallest error. Or the SMA closest to the price ensuring we are following it as close as we can. This also becomes the value used as the multiplier for the Keltner Channels and Bollinger Bands, we simply divide them by 10 to normalize it. This leads to ease of use. A user does not need to worry about finding the best bars back for each ticker and time frame. We have you covered! SSE is not to be regarded to be the best given values for a pocket of the market, simply an estimation.
Of course we have the option for users to enter their own bars back or multipliers. Here is a comparison of the SSE at work and a 20 period bar’s back with 2 as the multiplier on a 4 hour $QQQ.
The top one is the SSE, the bottom is 20. I turned off showing the SMA, and alerts for better visibility. We see the SSE version does not cross above 0 again until the trend totally reverses. I would much rather overestimate risk than underestimate it.
The BULL and BEAR plotted on the chart is a result of the following conditions. A BULL if the price is above our auto optimized SMA and the oscillator crosses over 0. BEAR is the opposite, price below the SMA and an oscillator cross below 0. Here is the Daily NYSE:PLTR chart to show some.
Users have the options to toggle on and off the BULL and BEAR plots, SMA, as well as input their own lookback and multipliers.
We encourage traders to not follow indicators blindly, none are 100% accurate. SSE does not guarantee that the values generated will be the best for a given moment in time. Please comment on any desired updates, all criticism is welcome!

Prometheus Cauchy ProbabilityThe Cauchy probability distribution is a distribution that is better suited to be used on non normal data, such as stock returns. Markets characterized by volatility and fat-tails can be better modeled like this.
This script provides two values to a user. The blue line represents the probability for the underlying to rise. The purple line represents its probability to fall. Rise and fall by how much? By default a prediction of 0.5% is set, but users can adjust it. The script automatically calculates based on how many bars would be in an entire day. For example there are 390 minutes from 9:30am to 4:00pm est. time so the script uses 390 bars. Users have the option to set a custom bars back length.
Developer’s note. This script works best with extended market hours on. Every example shown will have it on. The more price and volatility the better!
Code breakdown:
cauchy_cdf(x, x0, gamma)=>
1 / math.pi * math.atan((x - x0) / gamma) + 0.5
This function is what calculates the Cauchy cumulative density function.
// Calculate x and gamma
x = close * (1 + pred)
x0 = hi
gamma := ta.stdev(close, Len, false)
y = cauchy_cdf(x, x0, gamma)
//down
x_lo = close * (1 - pred)
x0_lo = lo
y_lo = cauchy_cdf(x_lo, x0_lo, gamma)
x represents the target price. x0 represents the current highest price of the day. Gamma is the standard deviation of prices over the desired length. x_lo, x0_lo, are variables to determine the probability of falling. Inputting these values into the function we get back our chance of rising and falling. Our blue and purple line.
Trade Examples:
Step 1: After a move down there is some choppiness, the values are close to each other and moving sharply.
Step 2: The chance to rise (Blue Line) strongly moves above the chance to fall (Purple Line), uptrend ensues.
Step 3: Small breaks below the purple line show breaks in the overall trend.
Step 4: Strong move down in price, and up in purple line end up trend.
Step 1: Strong cross in purple and blue line, marking the start of a downtrend.
Step 2: Small breaks above the purple line show breaks in the overall trend.
Step 3: Strong move up in price, and up in the blue line end downtrend.
Day trading example:
Custom input:
Step 1: Pre market weakness ends with a move up in the blue line and price.
Step 2: Consolidation in the uptrend with a small downtrend and above the purple line.
Step 3: Strong move up in price, and up in the blue line end consolidation and resumes strong uptrend.
This example is with custom input: 100 bars back, and 1% prediction.
Step 1: Downtrend starts after a big move up.
Step 2: Big crossover in blue and purple line. Uptrend starts.
Step 3: Lines get close signaling choppiness.
Step 4: Purple crosses over blue ending uptrend.
No indicator is 100% accurate, we encourage traders to use them along with their own discretion. Please use these tools with your own decision making. Comments about desired features and updates are encouraged!
